Why choose a private GP for weight loss?

GP-led programmes put medical safety first. Our doctors assess underlying causes such as thyroid problems, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), medication effects and metabolic issues before recommending a plan. That assessment reduces wasted time on generic diets and increases the chance of long-term success. For Buckhurst Hill patients this means personalised care without long waiting lists and continuity with the same named doctor where possible.

What a Mayfield Clinic GP appointment looks like

Longer consultations allow a full medical history, focused examinations and targeted blood tests. Expect: a baseline health assessment; screening for hormonal or metabolic contributors; a nutrition and activity plan matched to your routine; and an agreed schedule of follow-ups. Appointments for Buckhurst Hill residents are conducted at our Loughton clinic — see our Loughton location for details and directions.

Medication where appropriate

When clinically indicated, our GPs may prescribe licensed weight management medications as part of a structured programme. These are not quick fixes. They are tools used alongside dietary changes, activity adjustments and behavioural strategies, monitored with regular check-ups to manage side effects and adapt the plan.

Ongoing support that fits your life

We emphasise continuity: seeing the same GP builds understanding of what works for you. For patients from Buckhurst Hill that continuity continues between Loughton appointments and remote check-ins where helpful. Members can book directly by phone or WhatsApp; all patients can use the Book now button on our site.
